Hello, I'm Matt Jasa. If you are interested in learning about Glass blowing or Lamp working my channel offers a lot of advice on the techniques, tools, and general safety. Make Artistic pieces (animals, marbles, pendants), scientific items, and blown functional glass. Put your mind to it and with practice you can make anything!
Some more specific projects you might find on this channel are Glass Chain Necklaces, Glass Pendants, Marbles, Magnifying Glasses, Glass on Glass Fittings ( GonG ) and Blown Spheres. I also use small explosives from time to time for scientific tests; however these eplosive projects should never be attempted at home, safety is my highest precaution! Never attempt glass blowing without proper ventilation and eye protection.
Check out my videos on setting up your glass blowing torch along with how to adjust for the right flames; such as neutral, oxidizing and reducing flame before you begin. Learn how to cut, clean and prepare your glass for future projects.
Never store your propane in-doors, Always keep propane tanks outside! Propane gas is heavier then air, if a leak occurs it will begin to pool and fill a closed room or basement which can lead to an explosion.
If you have any questions about glass blowing, lamp working, or this video please leave them in the comment section down below. I may not respond immediately as I'm mostly busy in the glass shop but I'll get to it as soon as I can. If I don't respond to your question I might have missed it; please re-comment the question on the relative video.
Please join me in this exciting journey to see what can be done with glass. I create these videos to enrich others in the process; teach them to create their own works, but also for everyone else to enjoy the unique perspective and spectacular show that science/nature can provide.
I put a lot of work and time into each video. Most projects require 1 to 2 hours to complete in the shop and then several more editing the footage while adding voice-over. I've worked on some videos well through the night and into the next morning. So help me bring glass blowing and lamp working to others; please share this video on your social feed, be apart of the awesome journey.

Matt, really awesome video. Thank you for sharing. I hope you are still doing this so I can subscribe.
glass blowing is interesting fun, especially with borosilicate and making a water distiller.
I had a lot of fun with this one. I plan to revisit this project to make it a more complete set. I want to include the condenser coil and possibly a unique addition to the boiling flask.
Saw this in an Ad. Cool!
Felt glass shards in my eyes when that bubble was blown
Thz. for answering my question about recycling the glass.
Your are awesome thanks for the videos
Thank you! I'm happy to teach what I can and appreciate you viewing my work!
Will you sell a bigger verison of this?
Way cool...what he said.... yes I was just out in the garage trying to stick a glass tube on the end of my broken glass funnel only to find out the kitten finished the job for me
The oil lamp uses an all glass wick (no cloth). It uses a minimum amount of fuel (the lamp in this video will run for about 6-7 hours). It won't use all the fuel however, as the capacity in the vessel lowers so does the amount of fuel sent up the wick. At around 25% fuel capacity the flame will extinguish.
Note (2021): Although alcohol as a fuel is possible my latest series of oil lamps run primarily on lamp oil. Lamp oil is much more difficult to combust comparable to alcohol which doesn't necessarily need a wick. It should also prove a safer option in-case of accidental spillage or in a harsh thermal environment like a lampworking studio. I'll be releasing the full design of my latest oil lamp within the next couple weeks.
Matt Jasa, It works by capillary action, liquids will climb up thin tubes, capillary tubes are commomly used in biology to withdraw a tiny amount of liquid.
Look up retort and then try and duplicate that it's a pretty simple object and it doesn't have any definite restrictions on form you just have to have a way to plug it up you'll see when you look at it train make one of those if you would
so, i saw once where a guy used small rat tails from pulling points as a filling for a glass tube that acted like a wick in fact he called it a "glass wick". the shards give the oil more surface for surface tension to rise in the tube they stuck out above the tube end the flame creates vacuum . seemed to work.
For the “wick” on your “candle” do the airtight thing, waste less fuel and it builds pressure to light the flame or have a stronger flame
Great video! Question thoough, what type of glass did you use for this? Also is there a way to anneal glass like this properly without purchasing an expensive kiln?
8:20 that happens because the heat is not consistant, so the air shrinks in the flask or tube and the water forms a film and gests pulled back as the air/vapor cools until the film breaks, the water flows down and repeats, it is very common when using thin glass tubes.
This is really neat. I just buy my lab glass lol. But I make most of the chemicals for no reason other than fun so I get it man, I get it.
I wanted to make a miniature distillation apparatus that is one-ish piece that can be picked up whole and put away. I also wanted it to be solar powered using a concave mirror under the reaction flask. The condenser would be cooled with a simple trough of water or ice cubes that just hangs in place.
I thought it was a cool idea so much that I went and bought some supplies. However, I only ended up breaking things. I guess it wasn't getting hot enough. Plus, I have zero experience so maybe that is a bit lofty of a goal.
Sure would've been neat to distill small amounts or dangerous substances that you want as far away from the house as possible without using electricity or risking your heating mantle. Obviously would only work for certain mixtures.
Yea I get it, I always feel there's a certain special something from creating. Not just making a new thing, but changing the world directly around us. Its a subtle change but like with any lake 'every stone thrown raises the water slightly higher.'
So how did u learn? What tools do I need to start? N what techniques are used to make stuff? N where do I get the glass? Like borosilicate for lab ware?
KornShaDoW097 first thing you need is a torch, regulators for O2 and propane T grade hosing to connect torch to regulators. Next a 250lbs O2 tank and a bbq propane tank. Tools well the sky’s the limit there I would say to start get tweezers a graphite or brass pad/marver and most importantly didymium glasses shade 3 or 5. Glass can be purchased through retailers like mountain glass or directly from suppliers. Hope that helped expect to spend atleat 500$ to have a beginners studio and over 1k to really get started. My big torch alone is almost a G. You can get a decent GTT to start with for 200$ or less.
I taught myself using videos, like what I make now. You might be able to find classes if you would rather have an in-person instructor, but I highly recommend watching some of my work first in preparation to get the most out of your class.
The techniques depend on what your trying to create, but having a baseline understanding of how the glass moves with heat & cracks while cooling is like learning how to walk before you jump on a skateboard.
For equipment start with Oyxgen, figure out how/where your going to get it. You can rent/refill O2 tanks or buy a oxygen concentrator and make O2 yourself. Everything else will be easy to find & ordered online. Get your ventilation and fire proofing set up before you start. If your low on funds you can make some of your own tools and wait on the annealing kiln later.
I use www.mountainglass.com/ *buy in bulk and on-sale to save the most money*
The Bob Ross of glassblowing!
Haha Thank you! I'm a fan of Bob Ross. I think education is very important even in the Arts.
What fuel do you use!? You never mention
My candle runs on Lamp-oil or Isopropyl Alcohol. I forgot what I used in this video but there's lamp oil in it right now. Lamp oil doesn't evaporate as easily as Alochol.

I really need a lot of advice. I am disabled and I'm buying a house and I don't want to suffer with no money. I'm allowed to make a little bit money on the side even on disability but the problem is I can't go out and work I'm simply too disabled. I do pottery as a hobby and I'm also a metal worker as a hobby so I can make any kind of tools needed for this glass blowing endeavor that I'm considering. I'm also an amateur chemist so making custom apparatus that are very expensive to buy suits me very well I might even get good enough to sell them on eBay or Etsy or something like that and make a couple extra dollars. I wish I had a way to speak to you privately about this whole situation because I will not eat dog food because I'm so poor this country does not take care of its disabled people very well even people like me that paid into the system for his entire life I paid Max into the system for 25 years and my whole family is still paying into the system so it's not like I'm a very big burden on society. But I do need to try and make more money on the side to be able to keep from being destitute
Hello, I'm sorry to hear your having hard times. Glassblowing is a great hobby. It can be a bit of a therapeutic experience like mediation and might help compliment your chemistry. However to be honest I'm not sure if its the most profitable option. With the equipment cost and the amount of practice needed it could take some time before your satisfied with your work. It can also be difficult to compete in any machine dominated glass markets, like Scientific glassware. A lot of people focus on artistic work like marbles or pendants as machines can't create authentic art or focus on "recreational" glass as its a grey market. But if your dedicated and practice you could be selling your own glass art in a year or two for sure. Lastly it does take a bit of coordination to work with glass so for safety you might want to check with your doctor if you think your disability will pose any risks. I hope I gave you some good advice. I myself don't make much money from RUclips, but I do feel more fulfilled and purposeful for doing it.
@@MattJasa one there is one particular piece of scientific glassware that would be very simple to make and sell for a great deal of money and is coveted by home amateur chemists. It's almost a freeform piece the only thing is it does require one joint on top period do you buy the joints the ground glass joints pre-made? Or do you have a machine that grinds the joints like 24/40 etc
@@ClownWhisper That's a great question. You can make tapered joint fittings yourself but it requires a great deal of precision to make them fit properly. A lot of people do buy them pre-made and attach it to their work. 24/40? The largest joint forming tools I can find only go up to 19mm. You could try to form a giant custom taper by hand without a forming tool, but it might not be air tight.
Bro you don’t need him or anyone except those who will slide Thru and Set you up an automated business do you do nothing but collect 50k a week don’t ask these people for a hobby to help you with life requirements, your pissin me off now I have to help you motherfluck

Hola!
Lol not trying to be rude but I only came here because of the commercial or ad
8:20 zoo zoo
Some music would be grate ..
I'm also a glassblower and I find it bit egotistical of you saying glassblowing is easy.. its not .. especially if your showing this primitive level of skill.. your skills are very elementary at best and you could be much further ahead if you took even an introduction course where someone could give you feedback about your wrist placement and other things i noticed..and I can see alot of errors your making because you've "taught" yourself instead of being instructed and beign directed proper practices for techniques... dont play with bubble trash without a HEPA filter strapped to your face.. your asking for silicosis... get a L marver on your torch so you can really center your blowtubes.. you need an extremely centered handle to make quality ground joints by hand without tooling rollers.. dont take any of this as an attack.. just honest perspective.. ✌
I'm sorry my intentions weren't meant to be seen as egocentric, I present it more as an adventure in what YOU can do, not what It is I can do. You are right though it isn't easy, it does take a lot of practice and dedication. Some people do start off a little quicker or stronger but its good to remember it's not a race against others but a climb against yourself to fulfill your own potential. Thanks for comment Jordan your honest perspective has been noted, good luck to you in your glass journey!
HOLY BUBBLE TRASH! Be careful, bro!
Remember people don't make bubble trash
wow bro watch that buble trash when you go to do that try not to go so thin watch like a carston demo or something.
that stuff will kill you if you inhale any on accident
Oh yea I don't normally do that, it was a mistake. I put it out there so people can see how quickly the glass can blow out on you like that.
Thanks for watching and I hope you got your car trouble resolved. My clutch finally went out in my '07 ford focus. It's in the shop now, I have no idea what its going to cost.
